Use when installing, pinning, upgrading or debugging JS and PHP dependencies with npm, Yarn, pnpm, Bun or Composer: two lockfiles, switching managers, npm ci vs install, frozen or offline CI installs, workspace targeting, Node/PHP pins vs DDEV, packageManager, Corepack, unpinned npx, ERESOLVE, EINTEGRITY, duplicate versions, dedupe, Composer autoload, registry auth, CI caches, leaving Bower, node-sass, Yarn 1 and EOL PHP. Ships pm-audit. Not for bundler config, CVE triage or vetting a package.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Package Manager Operations

Day-to-day use of npm, Yarn, pnpm, Bun and Composer: which one a repo uses, which install
command belongs in dev, CI and deploy, how to pin Node and PHP so every machine agrees,
how to run packages without fetching strangers' code, and how to get off the legacy
tools. Written for server-rendered sites (Craft CMS, Laravel, WordPress) on DDEV with a
Vite or Laravel Mix build, where these mistakes are common: two lockfiles, unpinned
Node, no `require.php`, end-of-life PHP and `npx` in READMEs.

> Facts verified as of 2026-10-06 against docs.npmjs.com, yarnpkg.com, pnpm.io, bun.com,
> getcomposer.org (checked against the 2.10.3 tag), nodejs.org, php.net and
> docs.ddev.com. Current majors: npm 12 (since 2026-07-08; Node 24 and 26 still bundle
> npm 11), pnpm 12, Yarn 4, Composer 2 (2.10.3), Bun 1. Each reference cites its sources.
> For a version-sensitive answer, read `assets/package-manager-facts.json` and re-check
> upstream when this date is stale; keeping it current (`scripts/check-pm-facts.py`) is in
> [version-pinning.md](references/version-pinning.md#maintaining-the-facts).

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add 0xdarkmatter/claude-mods/package-manager-ops@sha256:76e7402291f7a98b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261006.cf184f9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
